My Story

For as long as I can remember, I've wanted my work to mean something.

I didn't know exactly what that would look like. I changed schools, changed majors, and spent years searching for a path that felt aligned. I knew I wanted to help people, but I hadn't yet found the way I was meant to do it.

That changed when my older cousin, who is also a massage therapist, suggested I attend a discovery workshop at the Connecticut Center for Massage Therapy. He thought it might appeal to what he jokingly called my "hippie side."

 

He was right.​​

I still remember sitting on the floor in a circle, listening to a conversation about the power of therapeutic touch and the many ways bodywork could support people's lives. Something clicked. For the first time, I wasn't wondering if I'd found my path, I knew I had.

I enrolled soon after, and more than fifteen years later, I still feel grateful that I listened to that feeling.

Over the years, my work has continued to evolve. I've studied Traditional Thai Massage, explored energy work, and become a lifelong student of yoga and yogic philosophy. Each has shaped the way I understand the body—not as separate systems to be fixed, but as an interconnected whole.

Today, I draw from those experiences to create sessions that are thoughtful, responsive, and centered on the person in front of me. My approach has become less about following a routine and more about listening: listening to the body, paying attention to what it's communicating, and responding with skill, presence, and care.

I believe the body is our oldest companion. It's the only home we'll ever live in, and it's constantly adapting, protecting, communicating, and doing its best to keep us moving through life. When we learn to listen to it instead of fighting against it, something begins to change.

To me, healing isn't simply the absence of pain. It's the process of reconnecting with the body's innate intelligence and supporting its remarkable capacity to adapt, recover, and restore balance.

Clients often tell me they feel calm, safe, and genuinely cared for from the moment they walk in. That means more to me than any compliment about technique. Creating that sense of trust allows the body to soften, the nervous system to settle, and the work to unfold naturally.

I still consider myself a student. There is always more to learn, more to understand, and more ways to grow as both a practitioner and a human being. That curiosity continues to shape my work every day.

It is a privilege to be invited into someone's healing journey, and one I never take for granted. My hope is that every person who walks through my door leaves feeling more connected to their body, more at ease in themselves, and more supported in living with intention.
